Preface - I've never been to Hollywood and I've never been involved in filmmaking. Well, there was that one time in Elementary School, but I needed the grade.
It seems to me that most of what's put out is formulaic, especially stuff put out by BuenaVista/Disney/etc. It's rare that I find a movie that (pleasantly) surprises me with something new, or at least new to me (Sixth Sense.) OR someone comes up with a novel idea that gets poorly developed (Stranger Than Fiction.) |

I watched the remake of The Wicker Man. It wasn't that it was *bad* actually. Nor was it actually *good*. It was just completely unnecessary.

That's why I love indie films. They aren't all good, but there are a lot of good ones and some great ones...and most don't rely on formula.
